It sounds like your dog is experiencing some discomfort, and there are several factors that could be contributing to her vomiting. Since this is happening weekly and the vomit is chunky, it might be related to her diet or something in her environment. Let's go through a few steps you can take at home to help her feel better.

Firstly, take a moment to review her diet. Have there been any recent changes in her food or treats? Sometimes, certain ingredients can upset a dog's stomach. You might want to try feeding her a bland diet, such as boiled chicken and rice, for a few days to see if her condition improves.

Next, consider her feeding schedule. If she's eating too quickly, it could be causing her to vomit. Try offering smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to see if that helps.

It's also crucial to ensure she stays hydrated. Make sure she has access to fresh water at all times, especially after vomiting, to prevent dehydration.

Since she's also experiencing itching, take a look at her skin for any signs of irritation or parasites. Regular grooming and a gentle bath with a hypoallergenic shampoo might provide some relief.

Additionally, check her environment to ensure she's not getting into the trash or eating things she shouldn't, as this can lead to vomiting.

If her vomiting continues or you notice other concerning symptoms, such as lethargy or changes in behavior, it would be best to consult a veterinarian. They can conduct a thorough examination and provide more specific guidance to rule out any underlying health issues.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any more questions or need further assistance. Thank you for taking such good care of your furry friend.
